Abstract
In the “flipped classroom” students prepare for classes via independent study using conventional or digital learning materials (articles, videos, lecture notes etc.). They acquire the subject knowledge (concepts, terminology etc.) required for the course individually and at their own pace.Learning Objectives
Students gain a better idea of their own learning progress and may save time when preparing for examinations.Flipping the classroom also furthers the following objectives:
Even out students’ differing levels of previous knowledge
Alter previous conceptions and increase motivation for a theme
Foster critical thinking and the transfer of knowledge to practice
Promote teamwork, interdisciplinary problem-solving and communication skills
Apply methods appropriate to your new teaching role.
Content

Keywords here might be: adjusted level of difficulty, authenticity, variability, suitable use of digital media, etc.Location
